SERIES HISTORY:
- On Wednesday night, Texas will be looking for its first win in Stillwater, Okla., during the month of April since April 3, 2011, when the Longhorns capped a two-game conference series with a 10-0, six-inning win.
- Wednesday's game will mark the 28th different season that Texas and Oklahoma State's softball programs have met on a softball diamond.
- The lone season the two programs did not meet since the Longhorns' first varsity season in 1997 occurred in 2020, when the COVID-19 Pandemic halted the season in mid-March.
- Texas and Oklahoma State were slated to begin a three-game series on Friday, April 24, before the season was stopped.
- The lone season the two programs did not meet since the Longhorns' first varsity season in 1997 occurred in 2020, when the COVID-19 Pandemic halted the season in mid-March.
- Texas has not lost back-to-back games in Stillwater, Okla., since April 24, 2022, when the Cowgirls claimed a doubleheader, 3-0 and 2-1.
- The 2025 season will mark the fewest regular season games (1) slated between Texas and Oklahoma State since the Longhorns' first season as a varsity sport in 1997.
- A win for Texas on Wednesday would give the Longhorns their 43rd all-time win over Oklahoma State and 18th over the Cowgirls in Stillwater, Okla.
LEADING OFF:
- Oklahoma State was the last team to shutout the Texas offense, when the Cowgirls blanked the Longhorns, 3-0, on March 30, 2024.
- Since then, Texas has scored at least one run over its last 78 consecutive games, which is the second longest streak in program history.
- From April 24, 2022 to May 27, 2023, the Longhorns scored at least one run in 83 consecutive games.
